Make Yourself at Home

Welcome Days 2024

Admitted and committed students, families and supporters: Join us at one of our 2024 Welcome Days.

Welcome to the URI community. This is the place where you will forge lifelong friendships, learn more about yourself and the world, and build the foundation for the rest of your life.

If that sounds like a lot, it is. We offer you many options and opportunities while you are here, and invite you to get involved. Meet people from places you’ve never been. Explore. Go to the beach. Have fun. Most of all, make URI your own.
